928: How to Speak Up About Your Beliefs Without Losing Yourself or Your People
I know this keeps a lot of us up at night: When do we speak? What do we say? What if we get it wrong? And honestly, I've been wrestling with it too… From letting my actions speak louder than my words for years, to finding my voice in ways that feel more direct and meaningful now.
Here's what we're covering today: the real trade-offs of using your platform, how to discern what's actually yours to carry, why "staying in your lane" might mean something completely different than you think, and what it looks like to lead imperfectly while building bridges instead of walls.
If you've been wrestling with when or how to speak up about the things that break your heart, this conversation is for you. Click play to learn how to speak up about your beliefs without losing yourself or your people!

927: The Relaxed Woman Revolution: Redefining Success Without the Stress
We live in a world where rest has been branded as lazy. Where women, especially ambitious women and entrepreneurs, are expected to do it all: run the business, raise the kids, support the family, maintain friendships, and keep it all looking effortless. But beneath the surface? So many of us are exhausted, overwhelmed, and quietly wondering if we’ll ever feel “enough.”
Nicola Jane Hobbs is here to challenge that narrative. Nicola is a chartered psychologist with a master’s degree in sport and exercise psychology, and she’s spent more than a decade supporting women’s health and wellbeing through yoga, meditation, and therapeutic practice. She’s also the founder of The Relaxed Woman, a movement and community dedicated to helping women recover from stress and burnout.
In this episode, Nicola and I are unpacking why rest feels so hard for women, why female entrepreneurs in particular struggle to switch off, and the practical rituals and strategies we can use to finally make peace with rest. If you’ve ever felt guilty for slowing down, or if burnout has been lurking in the background of your business journey, this episode is for you.

926: What I Wish You’d Ask Me… And the Answers I’ve Been Holding Back Until Now

Some of these questions come from curiosity, some from criticism… But all of them crack open a piece of where I’m at right now, and where I’m going next.
So let’s go “off script” together, shall we? Click play to hear the 10 questions, and my answers that may surprise you!

925: The Sale-a-Day Strategy That Doesn't Require Social Media
We’ve all been fed the idea that “more is more” when it comes to growing your brand… but what if doing less is actually the key to unlocking your next level?
Mei Pak is the founder of Creative Hive, and she’s built multiple 7-figure handmade businesses while completely ditching the hustle mentality. She started out making just $3/hour in her first year of business, but after shifting her strategy and simplifying her approach, she went on to build thriving businesses without relying on Etsy or social media.
In today’s conversation, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to grow your handmade or product-based business without burning out. You’ll learn how to streamline your marketing, get visible in ways that actually work, and finally let go of the pressure to do all the things.
So if you’ve been stuck in content creation chaos or spinning your wheels trying to get noticed, this episode is your permission slip to simplify and still succeed.

924: Drowning in To-Dos? This Home System Changes Everything
What if your life ran like your business? What if you had streamlined workflows, clear responsibilities, and built-in rest and rhythm not just in your work, but in your actual daily life?
As an entrepreneur with ADHD, I've spent years building incredible systems in my business. Launch calendars run like clockwork. Podcast workflows practically manage themselves. My business hums like a well-oiled machine. But at home? Pure chaos.
That is, until my friend Natalie Ellis introduced me to the concept of a "life operating system," and it completely changed my perspective. What if we borrowed what's working in our businesses and applied it to our real lives? Click play to find out how I did it, and you can too!
